It is indeed an attractive herald. However. Can't speak for other eras, but in my modeling year of 1953, the ORER entry for A&EC says that "freight cars owned are not employed in interstate commerce." Tony Thompson

You're a year too early. Southern sent 100 of their AAR '37 boxes to A&EC in 1954. This may be the first time Intermountain has run the A&EC scheme, but I know it's been done before in HO (probably by Red Caboose, or maybe Des Plaines?).

David, Des Plaines Hobbies offered the special run of A&EC models that were made by Innovative Model Works (IMWX). The kit I purchased is catalogue no. DPH193, A&EC 1045, having square-corner 4-5 Dreadnaught ends and HE. 3-54 reweigh stencils. It was formerly a Southern car built in 1938. The model came with a wood running board, whereas the A&EC cars received replacement Morton running boards. The IMWX tooling was later sold to Red Caboose ca. 1996, however, I have found no evidence from Red Caboose product lists that the company ever offered the A&EC model. Regards, Ed Hawkins

Des Plaines did the A&EC scheme with tobacco leaf scheme on a Viking roof car and Branchline also offered same on a Yardmaster series kit.

I'd forgotten about the Branchline cars! Yes, they did the scheme, and yes, those also were incorrect because of the ends. Tim O'Connor
